Same sh*t different year



Ang ganda ng pangalawang araw namin sa trabaho, ganadong ganado ako at napakaaga kong dumating sa opis pero pag dating ko ang say-saya, brown out pala, nagkaroon na ng kuryente bandang 11:30 pero pagdating ng 4pm brown-out uli, shet walang nagbago, ironic pa dahil nakatanggap pa ko ng text na "Dude musta? whats new?" mula sa tropang coño-coñohan, reply naman ako "anong whats new?", reply uli sya "anong bago?" tinagalog lang nya, nagmukha pa kong di marunong umintindi ng ingles, "wala! tawag ka na lang dito sa opis brown out kasi para maaliw naman ako" sagot ko naman.

"Hello? o anong bago sau ngayong new year" bungad agad nya pag katawag, "me sipon ako ngayon, last year kasi wala eh." pabirong sagot ko, tawa lang sya. Napaisip tuloy ako, pag new year ba kailangan me bago? Pre-requisite ba yun kapag nagpapalit ng taon? Ni hindi nga ako gumawa ng new years resolution ko dahil yung limang resolution ko last year isa lang ang nasunod ko, sumasablay pa paminsan minsan... i know... di nyo na kailangang sabihin... sucks to be me.

Kung bago't bago rin lang ang paguusapan eh wala naman talaga akong binago, aside sa mga materyal na bagay na binili ko nung pasko, ah me bago lang akong motto na napulot ko mula dun sa kainuman ko over the holidays, "mas masarap magpahinga kapag pagod!" magandang motto di ba? Very positive ang dating.

Kung yung start ng working day for 2009 ang pagbabasehan eh wala naman talagang gaanong pinag-bago, the usual day, the usual playlist sa player, the usual breakfast, trapik pa rin, nagyoyosi pa rin yung driver ng jeep na sinasakyan ko, bad trip! yung radyo sa bus yun pa rin yung station 'the no. 1 radio station in the Philippines pa rin daw sila gaya ng kine-claim ng lahat ng FM radio sa bansa, yung nagtitinda ng mani sa mantrade ganun pa rin ang sinisigaw, bagong luto daw kahit alam naman ng lahat na iniinit lang nila yun, yung nagtitinda ng ulam sa canteen sa likod ng opisina 'iskenless' pa rin ang bigkas sa skinless longganisa, mukha pa rin ni Bayani ang makikita mo sa edsa at marami pang same thing piping in and around the metro... and don't get me started on politics please lang.

Kahit bumaba ang inflation nung December, tayo pa rin daw ang most corrupt country sa asia, ang galing, cheers to that! Syempre itatanggi yan ng mga taong nagtatrabaho sa gobyerno, its a case of "don't bite the hand that feeds you" thing. Sori ayokong maging cynical pero gobyerno natin pinaguusapan natin kaya can't help it. There are changes nga pero for the worse ata, and the crying part eh the worst is yet to come. Imagine nyo na lang yung 2010 election, tapos habang iniimagine nyo, i-hum nyo yung background music ng JAWS parang... deee dum... deee dum... de dum de dum de dum... good luck sa future nating lahat, ewan ko ba kung pano napunta sa government tong usapan, tama na to, sinasayang ko lang oras nyo at oras ko.

Ayokong magpaka-negative pero me mga bagay na negative talaga ang dating sa akin, you can call me pessimistic all you want... i can live with that.

And don't get me started on madam auring predictions.

We Filipinos Are Mild Drinkers

Stumble upon this short story by National Artist for Literature Alejandro Roces (it's pretty long but trust me its a short story) on a book titled 'Panorama of World Literature for Filipinos',  i find this story amusing and funny at times. We may call the humor of Alejandro Roces as humor of exaggeration, the funny situations are laugh-provoking because they are... well... exaggerated hehe sometimes satirical. He wrote 'We Filipinos...' as a student of Arizona University and was first published in The Arizona Quarterly, i think it won him an award in literature from that university. So if you have a minute to spare read on. Happy reading!   We Filipinos are Mild Drinkers by Alejandro R. Roces WE Filipinos are mild drinkers. We drink for only three good reasons. We drink when we are very happy. We drink when we are very sad. And we drink for any other reason. When the Americans recaptured the Philippines, they built an air base a few miles from our barrio. Yanke...

It's not about you Carlo...

Antindi ng hype ke Carlo J sa pagiging National Artist nya, kung tutuusin naman eh hindi naman nya kasalanan talaga ng lubusan kung sya man ang mabigyan ng ganung parangal, ang me sala eh yung mga tao dun sa Malacanang particular yung petite na girl dun. Sila naman nag-singit sa kanya, sila naman ang gumawa ng bagong kategorya para s-swak sa kanya at sila naman nag parangal sa kanya so hindi naman siguro kasalanan ni Carlo J kung ano mang parangal ang tinanggap nya. Payo ko lang ke Carlo J, wag na nya masyadong i-defend yung sarili nya dahil nagmumukha syang… how would you say that?… pathetic?… tama nagmumukha syang pathetic, napanood nyo ba yung sa ANC? ( Carlo J at ANC ),dahil ang issue naman talaga eh hindi tungkol sa kanya (well partly tungkol sa kanya) pero ang talagang issue and ang questionable eh yung process na hinokus-pokus ng Malacañang, yung pagbale-wala sa original selection na ginawa ng CCP and NCCA committee, na kung hindi dahil sa minandyik na prose...

My Futile Attempt to Photography

Gutter droppings from makopa tree. Taken nung holy week, my auntie handed me 4 rolls of film, 24 exposure each 200asa, sayang naman, so i decided to unearth my rusty este trusty manual SLR, and click my boredom away. Most photos are taken from our neighbors house. Scanned sa office's Epson 4490 (the best!). The color is achieved by extending the selection bounderies of the scanner outside the negative margins, adjusted sa photoshop levels and sharpness and whooolaaaa, here's the result. You may call it art if you want to, i'm thinking otherwise hmmmmm.
